My first thought is that your "Bios Battery" is in need of
replacement. Check the literature that came with your computer to
find out the battery number and how to replace it.
No, the symptoms he describes can *not* be his battery.
Before anyone whose clock is running slow rushes out to buy a new battery,
he should first take note of whether he is losing time while the computer is
running or while it's powered off. If it's while powered off, the problem
*is* very likely the battery. But if it's while running (his situation), it
can *not* be the battery, because the battery isn't used while the computer
is running.
If the clock loses time while running, try this:
Open a command prompt window (Start | Run | cmd) and enter the following
commands:
net stop w32time
w32tm /unregister
w32tm /register
net start w32time
